After the turn of the Millennium, things were about to change drastically for Jessica Rabbit. However, there had only been a few things available up to that point. Markrita statues became a hot new collectible, but for some reason, this didn't last very long. Husband and wife team Mark and Rita Dornan were making such statues based on movies like Nightmare Before Christmas, Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan. In 2001 they finally released a Who Framed Roger Rabbit Markrita Statue.
They were all limited editions, but they were not numbered although each one did come with a Certificate Of Authenticity. They were made exclusively for the Art of Disney Gallery stores found only on Disney park property and came in a special box with the store logo.
In 2002, Jessica Rabbit pin collecting had not even started, but there were some Jessica items released now and then. One of them was the Jessica Rabbit Armani statue released at the 2002 Disneyana Event.
